Gold/Silver Technical Outlook September 13, 2016

GOLD (XAUUSD)

XAU/USD went back to the MA55 balance line and there is a high probability of the tendency reverse. Those changes were influenced by the FOMC member Brainard comments. She thinks that it is too early to raise rates as the grounds to tighten the monetary policy are too weak. Interest rates futures declined to 15% from 30%. Those comments may exert pressure on USD and there is a probability that XAU/USD will reverse upwards.

There is the uptend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. We have seen some moderate growth last week. However, the trend line held bulls attacks. Those attempts resulted in reverse and XAU/USD went downwards. The negative dynamics may continue in the next couple of days.

There is the downtrend on the Hourly chart as the MA-channel goes downwards and the price is below the MA55. You may try short trades from the MA55. However, the risks are still too high.

SILVER (XAGUSD)

XAG/USD went back to the MA55 balance line and there was a good opportunity to open short trades. The trend looks downwards and you may try to open short trades. However, there are risks that the current tendency may reverse in the nearest future.

There is the uptrend on the Weekly chart as the price is above the MA55. XAG/USD reached the trend line at 20,00 and reversed. We expect the negative dynamics to continue this week.
